Why the GI Joe Franchise Failed?
While the original is a fan favorite, the GI Joe the film franchise performed rather disappointingly. The first film in the series, GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra (2009), was only able to gross about $300 million after a budget of $175 million. The second movie,GI Joe: Retaliation (2013) did little better on a $140 million budget and grossed $375 million. The last movie, Snake Eyes: Origins of GI Joe, had a steep decline in its performance grossing $34 million worldwide, falling short of its $88 million production budget.
Despite having famous actors like Bruce Willis, Dwayne Johnson, Channing Tatum and others, the franchise has performed miserably. Many believe the reason is the lack of an appropriate tone for the films. Some believe the reason is the series’ inability to cater to a younger audience. While there are many aspects to blame for the failure of this franchise, many believe that the biggest to blame is the production studio, Paramount, and the decisions they’ve made.
